Modifying IPFS/Kubo mDNS Messages for Custom Use

IPFS utilizes mDNS for LAN peer discovery. Can I fork Kubo to repurpose mDNS messages for tasks beyond peer discovery? If possible, what challenges might arise, and is it feasible for long-term maintenance?

Certainly possible, but consider potential maintenance challenges when adapting mDNS messages in Kubo for purposes beyond peer discovery. Ensure feasibility aligns with your project's long-term goals and scalability requirements.
